Very cute. :)  I admire your algorithm's ability to parse English out
of e-mail messages, properly format quoted material, and merge content
from several messages into a single response.  Still, modern programs
going after the TT have advanced quite a bit beyond Eliza in recognizing
sentential and paragraph structure, and even have a rudimentary ability
to distinguish and follow semantic content.  Soon, it won't be
immediately obvious that something is wrong when you're reading output
generated by a computer.
